Detailed Operation
VFR Chart (VFR) Function
The VFR Chart function shows an VFR sectional style map for the display. Topographic features are shown.
The VFR display shows navigational aid information and the flight plan course line. The “smart” keys on the
bottom of the screen control zooming in and out, panning, and the display of information about the current
TO waypoint. The options available for the VFR mode include Flight Plan, screen orientation, Invert, and turn-
ing labels on or off. Review the Limitations section in the front of this guide for the limitations that apply to the
data displayed on the moving map.
Flight Plan
The Flight Plan option controls the display of the Flight Plan course line. Pressing the MENU ItEM key next
to the Flight Plan option toggles between showing and not showing the Flight Plan route line.
Map Orientation
This option controls the screen orientation in reference to the aircraft symbol. You may select from North Up,
Track Up, Track Up Arc, Track Up 360, and Desired Track Up. North Up sets magnetic north as the top of the
screen. track Up sets the current track of the aircraft as the top of the screen. track Up Arc sets the current
track of the aircraft and a 120° arc at the top of the screen. track Up 360 sets the current track of the aircraft
at the top of the screen and a 360° ring with the aircraft symbol position in the center. Desired track Up sets
the desired track to the next waypoint as the top of the screen. Press the MENU ItEM key next to this option
to scroll through the options.
Invert
The Invert option changes the text and background color. Inverting the display may help readability for the
